If you use I-5 in the Arleta
area, there are some closures coming up next week that we want you to know
about. Crews will continue demolishing the portion of the oldI-5/SR-170 connector that sits partially over
southbound I-5. So, to protect motorists, we’ll be closing southbound I-5 for
three nights (June 23 – 26) between Osborne Street and Sheldon Street.
Southbound I-5 on-ramps at Terra Bella Street and Osborne Street will also be
closed, as well as the westbound and eastbound SR-118 connectors to southbound
I-5. Details:

In addition to the full closure
on the southbound side of the freeway June 23 – 26, there will also be lane closures of southbound
I-5 at night through June 28 — sometimes up to three lanes between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. You’ll
be able to get through, but if you’re traveling late at night or very early in
the morning, southbound I-5 may be down to a lane or two.

If you live in the area,
you may hear some construction noise. Crews are doing demo work, which can be
noisy because it’s hard to break up massive chunks of concrete quietly. But the
noise will NOT exceed levels allowed by state and federal regulations. Inspectors are on site to make sure it doesn't. Still, we
apologize in advance for any disrupted sleep and general irritation that stems
from living close to a large freeway construction project.
